Missing street signs in the intersection of E First Street and S Woodlawn Ave
Missing street signs in the intersection of E First Street and S Woodlawn Ave
There needs to be a four way stop sign at this intersection. It’s currently not safe for cars driving northbound on Hawthorne, as you can’t see very far to the left and cars come flying down 1st street at high speed (way over the speed limit) due to the lack of stop signs along this stretch of the road. This in of itself is a safety issue for the many families living along the road but also for the bikers and pedestrians trying to cross along that Hawthorne greenway bike route. Likewise, when approaching this intersection going southbound on Hawthorne it’s very hard to see to the left. You end up having to nudge the nose of your car into the intersection to even see when you ca. try to cross. I’ve personally had a couple of close calls with speeding cars on 1st. This needs to be addressed soon or there is likely to be a serious accident at this intersection!
Street name signs atop stop sign at corner of 800 Block of University Dr and Woodlawn are bent and sagging until completely vertical. Difficult or impossible to read while in a car.
Stolen street barriers in backyard. Also stolen signs in yard behind 520 to the west in along the alley.
Stolen signs, also in the backyard of 520 S Eagleson
The street sign box is covered in graffiti
At the intersection of E. 2nd St. and S. Woodlawn Ave., Westbound traffic is frequently running or failing to stop at the stop sign due to A tree obscuring the stop sign’s visibility. This is a school zone and there is quite a bit of pedestrian traffic , many of whom are wearing headphones, between the IU campus and Bryan Park.
The stop sign is partially covered by shrubs and they need to be trimmed. People run this stop sign all the time. Please make sure the stop sign is fully visible. On woodlawn headed NORTH at E Maxwell Lane and Woodlawn intersection.
Reflective warning sign where S. Park Ave. deadends at the north side of Bryan Park. The top bolt came out and the top of the sign swung down.
Intersection of 2nd and Henderson has a stop sign on all 4 corners. All but one of them face the lane of traffic which is supposed stop. The one circled in blue (NW corner) on the photo seems unnecessary. For traffic going east on 2nd, there is the sign on the SW corner. For traffic heading west on 2nd, there is a sign on the NE corner. A friend pointed that out, and we are both curious: Why is there a redundant sign? Thanks!
